Avon and Somerset Police step up efforts on bike crime
Plain clothes officers out in force
Avon and Somerset Police have stepped up their efforts on bike crime in Bristol. Plain-clothes officers are out in force on the lookout for cycle thieves in the city.
And their attempts to crack down on bike theft were highlighted after two men, including a one-legged thief, were caught by plain-clothed police trying to make off with a bike in Bristol city centre.
Recent research indicates a bike is stolen in the UK every 65 seconds and the boom in cycling has created rich pickings for bike thieves.
Inspector Phil Davis of Avon and Somerset Police said in the Bristol Evening Post: "These arrests show that police in Bristol are taking cycle theft very seriously and we will come down hard on anyone we catch stealing bikes.
"We are working very hard to make Bristol a safe place to be a cyclist and are working closely with the council's Cycling City team to ensure that there are safe places for owners to park their bikes in the city.
"If you own a bike make sure you make it hard for thieves to steal by using a good quality lock and if you see anything suspicious around a cycle parking area please dial 999."
The news comes after Avon and Somerset Police were praised for their response by a cyclist after he was reunited with his classic Bob Jackson bike a year after it had been stolen.
Members of the londonfgss.com forum discovered the ex-Londoner's £1400 bike on eBay and Avon and Somerset Police recovered it the same day, and even delivered it to his home.
Mr Jones had said: "The police response in Bristol was phenomenal, and I was surprised, mainly due to my experiences with London police. They took the matter very seriously.
Bike forums are invaluable resources, with thousands of people looking out for rare parts, and some of Bristol's police regularly sign in to them.
Ah, the irony. Tony's bike was half-inched from outside co-op this very morning...

12 bikes stolen outside of my office in 6 months, police response, "here is your crime number - next please..."
Even when the bike was seen leaving the car park and was very distinctive (white full sus frame, pink tyres) and we called within seconds...

It was the Co-op on the Bear Flat.
I'm not holding out much hope of getting it back, but the police were interested because the manager of the Co-op told me it was all caught on CCTV.
My fear is that the thief won't know what he's got - I take a minimalist approach to bike maintenance on my own bike and it's really scratched (pre-production paint job) so it might end up in the canal or the river cos to the untrained eye it doesn't look like it's worth anything…

Harsh tony. Guidob, i agree, thats the response I have had...go claim on your insurance. If you are caught red-handed as it were then why is therea need for a trial. Those caught by plain clothes policemen in Bristol should be locked up with no trial as they were caught in the act.

"The Lighthouse Santa by Sara Hoagland Hunter with illustrations by Julia Miner should be in every Marblehead home. If you have young children it's a must. If your children are grown, buy it just in case. If you have no children, buy it to remember your own childhood dreams and then find a child to read it to."—Marblehead Magazine.com
The Lighthouse Santa drops presents to all of us who live alone at the edge of the ocean. From Owls Head Light in Maine to our Great Point Light on Nantucket, we wait for the sound of his plane. He has never missed a Christmas at least, not yet
For Kate, life at the Great Point Lighthouse on Nantucket Island can be exciting, full of stormy seas and even shipwrecks. But it can also be lonely, with only her mother, father, and brother Sam to keep her company. Now it's Christmas Eve, and Kate waits in her lighthouse as a blizzard threatens to ruin this most special day. For as long as she can remember, the Lighthouse Santa has dropped presents from his airplane for all the lighthouse keepers' children. But will his plane make it through hurricane winds and blinding snow? Sam says it is impossible, but Kate has been keeping a secret Christmas wish all year long, and she will not give up hope. Based on the Christmas flights of Edward Rowe Snow, hero to lighthouse children for almost fifty years, The Lighthouse Santa has all the elements of a true Christmas classic: light, love, wonder, and the power of one child's faith to shine through darkness. From the midst of the howling storm to her own soaring flight with the Lighthouse Santa, Kate must cling to her father's promise that "Nothing is impossible on Christmas Eve in a lighthouse." In their first collaboration since the success of their award-winning picture book The Unbreakable Code, author Sara Hoagland Hunter and illustrator Julia Miner once again shed light on a little-known episode of history.
"Not only does Sara Hoagland Hunter's new book, The Lighthouse Santa, deliver this much needed holiday balm, it shines a light on a fascinating bit of New England history many of us may not know about. And oh yes, it may just grab the attention of those tech-crazed kids of ours too."—Concord Monitor
"Your book brought tears to my eyes. My husband and I couldn't believe all the memories it brought back to us!"—Dolly Snow Bicknell, daughter of Edward Rowe Snow
SARA HOAGLAND HUNTER is the author of eight previous books for children, including The Unbreakable Code, the award-winning story of the Navajo Code Talkers of World War II, also illustrated by Julia Miner. A lifelong New Englander, she has always been drawn to the seashore and the magic of lighthouses. Through her art and design work, JULIA MINER celebrates the gifts we receive from our past, affirming ageless values such as heroism and regional identity. |

Office of Strategic Services We walked along to an inconspicuous little cabaret doing pretty good
business in nudes and wisecracks next door to the big Metropole Theater...
This place specialized in an interior of private booths looking out on
the floor show ....
.... Two men sat alone there, nearly hidden by the semi-darkness. They
had on light raincoats, with the collars drawn up to their eyes. They
both wore large horn-rimmed glasses. The booths on either side were also
taken up by men in dark clothes, men with nondescript faces. They were
carefully watching the crowd and especially anyone who walked near to the
corner booth .....
.... It was not the first time Hitler and Goebbels had come here before
the war -- the place closed a year later -- but I never would have looked
for them in the cabaret, on that night of all nights .....
.... The fact is he handed his memorandum over to Henderson at
seven-fifteen that evening and his armies had orders to roll into Poland
before dawn on September 1, regardless of the outcome of negotiations,
for Hitler was convinced that at the worst the British and possibly the
French would carry on a shadow war for a few weeks and then make a deal.
So he played his cards with cool self-assurance. That night he celebrated
war, not peace.
He probably liked the floor show, for he sat there in the dark booth
with Goebbels for another half-hour before vanishing as discreetly as he
had come.
P.J .Hues The Foe we face pp. 81, 82, 83
Hitler takes himself seriously and will flare up in a temperamental rage
at the least impingement by act or attitude on the dignity holiness of
State and Fuehrer. I incurred his momentary displeasure some years ago
when I offered him a pencil instead of a fountain pen to sign his name
to a photo held out to him. He threw the pencil down without comment and
reached for somebody's else [sic] proffered fountain pen. That's Hitler.
P.J. Hues: The Foe we face.p.104.
Slowly the Mercedes car with its six uniformed men moved toward the
German officer standing at rigid attention in the main yard back of the
dome. There was no other living soul in sight. The first car was
followed by three others...similar in appearance. They, too, were filled
with square-jawed men from the Rhine. ..who jumped out before the first
car stopped and rushed up to form a sort of half circle around the one
up ahead.
A six-foot adjutant in the first car had sprung to the ground .... and
yanked open the door opposite the driver. Adolf Hitler, wearing a white
coat of dustproof gabardine, pushed his right leg slowly to the ground,
a little stiff from the long drive into Paris and perhaps again bothered
a bit by a twinge rheumatism, and stood up to stare at the suntopped
edifice above. He preferred to look up at things, like the stars, rather
than down into the depths where men work and struggle below the surface...
Hitler, the mighty Fuehrer of the Third Reich and master of armies
swooping over Europe had come to visit Napoleon.
To Hitler it was a pilgrimage, a dream come true, and a miraculous
milestone in a passion which guided at least part of his life. He came
here to look at the Napoleon he had followed over the battlefields of
Europe step by step... he came here to look at the hallowed spot where
rests the man whose political ideas for Europe gave Hitler a basic
pattern to follow. And here... lay the man by whose military mistakes
Hitler swore to profit.
The German officer who greeted Hitler received a perfunctory salute
.... he led the way up the ... steps to a nail-studded wooden door and
pushed it open. Hitler stepped inside, walked quickly through the
ante-chamber into the great rotunda under the dome, as if he knew his
way in the dark... His men ... were scarcely able to follow him ...
Hitler stood [unreadable] the marble balustrade and looked down into
the pit at the sarcophagus inside of which Napoleon I sleeps.
He didn't salute; his cap with the golden swastika eagle stayed on his
head; he just stood there with hands on the balustrade and mouth slightly
open... His men keenly aware of his mood and temper tiptoed... to the
balustrade and also looked down, saying nothing and most of them far
from impressed by what they saw below... To them...sworn to the daily
task of guarding the Nazi Fuehrer with their very lives, this was just
another tomb... Their job at the moment was to keep from sneezing,
coughing, or breathing too hard... They made sure the guns were easy to
reach... They neveropened [sic] their mouths or talked to the Fuehrer,
unless perchance he threw a word... at the nearest one... a command to
bring him a glass of water or perhaps to call this or that adjutant.
I guess it was a full minute before the Fuehrer broke that strange
silence which laid a cold hand on your heart there under the Dome des
Invalides that dying day in July... We had been taken there a little bit
earlier on our pledged word of silence on what we would see... So
forestalling a leak to the outside world about an incident... they were
not anxious to have published at that time... Hitler was to make his
formal visit to Paris some days later, when the Nazi propaganda machine
intended to go to work and make the most of it. On this day the Fuehrer
had come in his own right and on a pilgrimage dear to his heart.
We stood opposite the tomb and waited, keenly watching... him. He was
lost in thought, with that faraway expression again creeping over his
face. He folded his arms and murmured something we could not hear; his
lips moved, as if he were talking to himself, and once or twice he
shook his head. Then he came out of the trance as suddenly as it had
begun, and he leaned forward on the balustrade to stare more fixedly
into the pit.
"Napoleon, mein lieber, they have made a bad mistake," the guttural
voice of the Fuehrer said suddenly out of the void. It startled me,
standing there across from a live war lord and above a dead emperor...
He had sounded a bit cynical and slightly amused .... turning to his
Press Chief, Otto Dietrich, to tap him on the arm. But he was talking
to all before him.
"Ja, it is a big mistake they have made," Hitler repeated and into the
pit . "They have put him down into a hole.People must look down
[Page 8]
at a coffin far below them. They eyes [sic] cannot come close and
really grasp what they are looking for.
"They should look up at Napoleon, feeling small by the very size of the
monument or sarcophagus above their heads. You do not impress people if
you walk in a street and they are on top of a building. They must look
at something above them; you must be the stage and the center of
attraction above the level of all eyes. Then the mind reaches out and
fastens itself upon the object or the person. It is all a matter of
common psychology. The effect of Napoleon and his hold on the nation
would have been much greater if people could come and actually touch
the stone he sleeps in by reaching their arms up and perhaps by standing
on tiptoe. This way, I must assume that the thousands who have come
here before me look into their guidebook and go away without
remembering more about it than about the next place. Their minds failed
to grasp the greatness of Napoleon, and Napoleon down there in that pit
failed to touch their hearts and affect his mission after death of
keeping alive the spirit and tradition of a great epoch."
Hitler began to walk slowly around the balustrade, pausing once more
at the glass door leading into the church with its tattered flags of
Napoleon's wars in Europe, to look almost carelessly into the pit from
the opposite side of where he had stood before. I could not help but
feel that a sort of disdain had replaced the man's former intentness.
"I shall never make such a mistake." Hitler said suddenly." I know how to
keep my hold on people after I have passed on. I shall be the Fuehrer
they look up to and go home to talk of and remember. My life shall not
end in the mere form of death. It will, on the contrary, begin then.
Hitler left the Dome des Invalides, as I later found out, determined
to carry out among the first things after the war the great plan for his
life after death. I knew that in years gone by he had gone on the
assumption that death not find him a very old man; he used to wrok [sic]
out blueprints for terrific construction projects in Germany by the
mile, throwing millions of men into the jobs and billions of marks. He
was in a hurry then, racing his monuments against the Reaper and always
saying to people that the great things he would leave undone would never
be finished by those coming after him. He was firmly convinced that the
furious pace and the epochal age in which he lived and moved (he really
is convinced he is the motivating force and the molder of that age) would
terminate soon after his death, swinging the world by nature and
inclination into a long span of digestive process marked by a sort of
quiet inactivity. People in his "thousand-year Reich" would build
monuments to him and go around to touch and look at the things he had
built, he thought. He said as much on that glorified visit of his to
Rome in 1938, adding that a thousand years hence the greatness and the
the [sic] ruin of his own time must intrigue the people of those
faraway days. For, believe it or not, that is how the mind of this man
Hitler projects itself without a blush over the centuries.
P.J.Huss, The Foe we face.pp.188.8.131.52.211.212.213.
So it comes about that Hitler, if his Third Reich should outlast the
war, might reach the point where he can prepare on this earth the
material means of keeping his grip after death on the hearts and the
minds of men. The plans are all made, and the blueprint lies in the
vault of the Fuehrer House in Munich. In fact, the plans are a change
of those from some years back, when they bored and drilled up through
the throat of an Alpine peak to build the solitary Eagle's Nest for
Hitler high above the clouds of his mountain chalet at Berchtesgaden.
I was up there once, in this fantastic engineer's feat of stone, steel,
and glass. The idea back of it was to have a mausoleum here for Hitler
after death, [unreadable] in the clouds above, over beyond the reach of
the ordinary man but always there to look at from the valley far below.
They say it was built without Hitler's knowledge by a favorite architect
who later died. It was intended as a great surprise to the Fuehrer from
those close devotees and from that grotesque circle of Nazis clinging
around him like blindfolded apostles. They believed and preached his
divine inspiration and mission, convinced that his hold on the German
people after death would grow to enormous proportions, drawing them to
him as Mohammed draws the pilgrimages to Mecca. So they built the Eagle's
Nest atop the highest peak in Berchtesgaden and presented it to him in
the initial form of a teahouse and secluded place to get away from the
world for a few hours....
....I happen to know that he was pleased as a child when he first
[unreadable] up to that lair of the gods.
P.J.Huss,The Foe we face.pp. 215, 216
Perhaps I found out by chance on that day at Napoleon's tomb why Hitler
has abandoned the idea of using the Eagle's nest as his last resting
place after death. The Fuehrer felt that up at the Eagle's Nest he was
far removed from the personal touch essential to the success of his
plan; up at the Eagle's Nest there could be no crowds coming in future
pilgrimage from the far corners of the earth to stare at him in silent
awe and perhaps touch the crypt before them. His plan needs constant
emotion and a play on hysteric mass minds, and the more he can arrange
the means and ways of achieving this after he dies, the more surely he
is assured of his goal. At least that is how he looks at it, and that
is the line he is working on.

A teenager charged in the shooting death of an Oklahoma college baseball player from Australia is due in court.
Also read: 50 firefighters battle huge apartment fire
Sixteen-year-old James Francis Edwards Jr. is due in court Tuesday in Duncan. He's charged with first-degree murder and accessory after the fact in the death of 22-year-old Chris Lane.
Lane was shot while jogging along a tree-lined road in Duncan while visiting his girlfriend's parents in August. Investigators say he was randomly targeted by "bored" teenagers. He had been preparing to enter his senior baseball season at East Central University in Ada.
Prosecutors have said they'll drop the first-degree murder charge against Edwards if he continues to testify against two other teens accused of firing the fatal shot and driving the car.

Issues vs. Action Items
A project without issues is a project that is finished (and sometimes those projects have issues too!). It may often seem that a baseline plan is barely set when issues start cropping up--some of them come from risks that are realized before being mitigated, while some of them come from stakeholders who just realized what else they need from the project.
In addition to the issues, there are action items being generated all over the place. Tasks in the project plan never seem to cover all the work needed, and the action items need to be tracked to make sure they are finished timely. Perhaps the requirements weren't defined well enough and some rework needs to be done, or perhaps the work being done is generating additional work. Any number of activities on a project can generate action items.
The first thing a project manager needs is an approach to facilitate the completion of issues and action items. Make no mistake, the key word here is "completion". If the process or management plan doesn't get results, then it's not working. Sometimes, the issues and action items are all lumped together in one place: the project plan or an issue log. It is more beneficial though to split it up into separate lists so that different approaches can be used. With everything to be done, there is not often a "one size fits all" solution.

San Francisco 34th America's Cup Final Emitrates Team New Zealand vs Oracle Team USA Race 14 postponed
The race was officially postponed at 2:40 pm PT, the latest possible time to start a race. The wind was strong enough to race, but the direction was too far south from the desired direction of 230 degrees, just west of southwest.
'We saw this day coming a few days ago,' said Regatta Director Iain Murray. 'We got the teams together last night to talk about the possibility of a light and variable wind from the south today. We do have an alternate course that we offered up to the teams, but they weren't interested in sailing that course. They prefered to wait until the wind is back to the southwest on the normal racecourse.
'The racing that's left is extremely important and the teams don't want to chance something that they're not prepared for,' said Murray.
Emirates Team New Zealand leads 8-3 and needs just one more victory to win the America's Cup for the third time (1995, 2000). Oracle Team USA, on the other hand, needs to win six consecutive races to retain the trophy it won in 2010, after being penalized 2 points by the International Jury.
Race 14 is rescheduled for tomorrow at 1:15 pm PT, with Race 15 scheduled for 2:15 pm PT. In the U.S., the America's Cup Finals will be broadcast live on the NBC Sports Network. Replays will be available on the America's Cup YouTube channel.
Internationally, the America's Cup Final can be viewed in more than 170 territories. All racing is also live on America's Cup YouTube channel (subject to territorial restrictions).

About the Poem
About the poet
Twice-winner of the Carnegie Medal for children's literature, and one-time runner-up (no author...
Ghost in the Garden
The ghost in the garden
Cracks twigs as she treads
Shuffles the leaves
But isn't there
The ghost in the garden
Snaps back the brambles
So they spring against my legs
But isn't there
Draws spiders' webs across my face
Breathes mist on my cheek
Whispers with bird-breath down my ear
But isn't there
Tosses raindrops down from branches
Splashes the pond
Traces a face in it
That isn't mine
Moves shadows underneath the trees
Too tall, too thin, too tiny to be me
Spreads bindweed out to catch me
Flutters wild wings about my head
Tugs at my hair
But isn't there
And when I look
There's only the bend of grass
Where her running feet
Have smudged the dew
And there's only the sigh
Of her laughter

Anybody complaining about censorship, self- or otherwise, look first to articles on Israel and the Jews. Look to the deliberate shelling of 6 small Palestinian boys playing soccer on a beach, witnessed by an NBC reporter. His story was never reported and he was immediately reassigned - but not before he tweeted the murders, murders that he saw, because he was playing with those boys only moments before.
The deaths were reported in the Western media, but as 'collateral damage', not as deliberate targeting of children far removed from any battle zone.
On the same note, did you know that a Saudi judge advertised for a physician to surgically sever a man's spine so that he could be permanently a quadraplegic, as punishment for causing a car accident in which another man was similarly injured?
The amount of censorship in the West is far greater than in China, and for much less valid reasons.
And Bismark, go back to sleep. You make even less sense today than you did a year ago, which was the last time I visited this foolish site.
CHINA has long enjoyed leverage over foreign businesses and governments thanks to the lure of its huge market. This goes back even to the latter days of Mao when there was no market to access, just the portent of one.
Today the Communist Party wields its now formidable leverage in all manner of ways, successfully muting or softening criticism from CEOs and world leaders. Purveyors of content—whether Hollywood studios or internet companies—readily make compromises in order to do business in China.
Of late this leverage has been on display in the businesses of journalism and publishing—not in content for the Chinese market, where one expects it, but in content meant for foreign eyes that might offend official Chinese ears. On March 29th the Observer reported that Reader's Digest, a publisher, bowed to censorship demands from its Chinese printer of an anthology of condensed novels. The offending fictional tale mentioned the arrest and torture of a follower of Falun Gong, a spiritual movement that authorities have outlawed as an "evil cult". The anthology was being printed in English and was not being sold in China.
On March 24th Jim Romenesko, a watcher of American media, reported the resignation from Bloomberg News of Ben Richardson, an editor based in Hong Kong. Mr Richardson said he quit in protest of management's handling—which is to say spiking but not admitting to as much—of an investigative story about one of China's richest men and his ties to top leaders. On March 20th Peter T. Grauer, chairman of Bloomberg L.P., suggested that his news organisation should not even be pursuing such politically sensitive coverage. Given that he made his remarks at a public forum in Hong Kong, it seemed he was metaphorically shouting his sentiments across to mainland China.
We have written about this issue before in this space, here and here. This story of self-censorship can be oversold. Most journalists and publishers resist such pressure.
The pressure will keep being applied, though, and at least some of those who are tempted by the China market will respond accordingly. Kristie Lu Stout, a presenter for CNN in Hong Kong, tweeted on March 31st about what happened when she asked a roomful of MBA students whether they would "spike a critical China story to secure market access?" The answer, she wrote, was a "resounding yes".

Are there any traditional lights out there that can operate at the same time they are plugged into a USB port for charging??
I was hoping one of the niterider lights like their lumina 650 might fit the bill but according to my friend when it is being charged by a usb charger the light will not turn on.
Any advice or feedback would be appreciated.

Best Hanan Essam Poems
Feel the brightness of my life; Call the whiteness for you to see; Dig for it very carefully; This is what should happen to be. Light of happiness gets up for a rise; Filling your darkness up so wise; Just go and do your tries. Things could come up in your way. Never mind this is your day. It is like the rhythm you play. Going up and down and never stays. Life is like a melody Things could go so softly; Giving you a timing glee. But still you cannot find it as a harmony.

Oklahoma country music superstar Carrie Underwood's latest single "Two Black Cadillacs" drove straight to the No. 1 spot last week on the Mediabase country airplay charts, giving the Checotah native her 17th No. 1 single and her eighth No. 1 as a songwriter, according to a news release.
The third single off her album "Blown Away," "Two Black Cadillacs" was written by the 2005 "American Idol" winner along with Josh Kear and Hillary Lindsey, and was recently certified gold by the Recording Industry Association. The video for "Two Black Cadillacs" was No. 1 on last weekend's GAC's Top 20 Countdown, for a total of three weeks at the top spot.
On next Thursday, April 4, she will perform her new single, "See You Again," her fourth single from "Blown Away," on the Fox reality TV show "American Idol."
Her 17th No 1. proceeds her performance announcement for the 48th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, where she is nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year for the eighth consecutive year and Album of the Year for "Blown Away." Having won a total of 10 ACM Awards, Underwood is also a two-time Entertainer of the Year winner. In 2010, she was honored with the ACM Triple Crown, an award presented to an elite group of country music artists who boast wins for New Artist, Male/Female Vocalist and Entertainer of the Year.
"Blown Away" made history last year by debuting at No. 1 on Billboard's Top Country Albums Chart, making Carrie only the second country artist in the 47-year history of the chart to have each of their first four albums debut at No. 1. "Blown Away" also debuted at No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart, making Carrie only the second country artist in history to have three consecutive albums debut at No. 1. At the time of release "Blown Away" became country's best-selling digital album debut since 2010. The first single off "Blown Away," "Good Girl," has been certified platinum and reached No. 1 on the country airplay charts, as did the title-track, "Blown Away," which was recently recognized for 2 million sales. The videos for both songs also reached No. 1 on CMT's Top 20 with "Good Girl" spending a record setting 14 weeks at No. 1.

Portrait of a Man, early 1650s
Frans Hals (Dutch, 1582/83–1666)
Oil on canvas
Frans Hals (Dutch, 1582/83–1666)
Oil on canvas
43 1/2 x 34 in. (110.5 x 86.4 cm)
Marquand Collection, Gift of Henry G. Marquand, 1890 (91.26.9)
In this canvas of the early 1650s, the figure's pose follows a pattern Hals employed twenty years earlier, but here the arrangement is more frontal and contained. The resulting impression of reserve or authority is relieved by the relaxed expression, and perhaps by the French fashions of flounced sleeves and colorful ribbons at the waist. Vivid brushwork and the nearness of the foreshortened hat add to the portrait's immediacy.

I showed my cock to Emma at the weekend
It is worth reading my previous stories leading up to this one.
"I showed Emma my cock"
"I showed my cock to Emma at Nats party"
The Weekend (Party)
We had a weekend party for Nat's birthday, Emma's parents dropped her off at 10 am as they had to go up North to see her Grandfather for the weekend. Ben took her to his room to drop her case. They came out to join us for breakfast. I was in the kitchen area when Emma wearing loose shorts and a large T shirt as she leaned forward I could see her erect nipples grabbed my cock and said I want you later.
After breakfast it was raining, Ben and Emma went to the den to play computer games. At 1pm we called them up for lunch.
In the afternoon a couple more people arrived. The kids played in the garden while we adults played cards in the den.
Thankfully the clouds disappeared and it was a warm evening. At the end of the evening about 9pm of the people had left and just Joe and Abi were left. The four of us were in the den drinking and smoking some really good grass. We had told Joe and Abi about Emma and the way she had deep throated me and Nat had her had fingered each other, Joe asked if they could join in with deflowering Emma.
Emma was the only child staying the night there was no sleep over, she was in the spare room changing, I went up and told her about Joe and Abi and their request. She said that would be great I like to show my body to Joe and Abi. I had a joint with me which Emma recognised and asked if her could have a puff. I sat down giving the joint to her . She took a toke and coughed, She had a drink of my whiskey and cock to calm the coughing and took more of the joint. Emma then unzipped my trousers and pulled my out, it immediately got hard. Emma licked the head and took the head in to her mouth. Suddenly she stopped and told me to put my cock back into my trousers, with difficult I did, Emma told me I would have to wait till she came down to the den.. I invited her down to join us. She asked me what she should wear. I suggested she wear something suitable for the evening. sexy.
Emma came down wearing a soft pink baby doll nightie with matching panties. Joe welcomed her saying how fantastic she looked and asked her what she wanted to drink. "Can I have some Whiskey and coke please?" she asked.
I said to Emma to stand in the middle of the room and turn around and show us her nightie. She turned around and started to dance to the music. Emma must have been motivated by the Grass and alcohol she dance like she was a professional, I turns out she goes to class and is one of the best there. She was so sexy, Joe asked her to remove her nightie. She said "not yet, I want to suck some cock first".
Joe said OK who did she want to suck. She replied the one with the longest cock. I knew that was Joe, but I went along with it. I asked how were we going to decide. She suggested we strip off and put our cock together to see who has the longest.
She told Nat and Abi to strip us. Joe and I stood up and allowed the girls to remove our clothes. When we were naked Emma told us to face each other and put our cock together. We did this and then Emma held them and decided that Joe's was the longest. Emma kneeled down and licked my cock then turned to Joe and took his long cock into her mouth. Joe has a 10 inch cock so just 4 inches were inside her mouth before reaching her throat. Joe then pulled her head to him and Emma took his cock down her throat, Joe fucked Emma's throat for a while till he grunted he was going to cum. She held mouth on Joe's cock draining to last of his cream.
After Joe had cum in her mouth she went over to Abi and kissed her sharing Joe's cum with her.
Emma then lay on the rug in front of the fire she looked at me Pointing her finger to me and bent it to say come here, and said "Now come and fuck me "
Nat and Abi held her legs apart, she still had on a pair of panties that had a large wet spot on them. Nat took the panties at the crutch and held it to the side showing between Emma's legs the most beautiful pussy lips glistened at us.
Nat put her fingers into Emma's cunt and said "Are you sure you want my hubby to fuck you and take your precious cherry?"
"Oh yes, Nat are you going to let him fuck me?" Looking at me she said "Are you gone to stick your big cock in my little girl pussy and make me a woman hmmm?" "I need a cock in my little pussy so bad! will you fuck my little cunt. After fucking my cunt you can fuck my ass."
Nat told me to come close and took my cock into her mouth. I didn't need too much sucking as my cock was so hard. I got down between Emma's legs and Nat positioned my cock at the entrance to Emma's virgin hole. Emma was wet after Nat's work on the little hole, I slid the head of my cock just an inch inside her. Slowly I pushed more till I came to her maidenhead.
I looked at her as I pushed a bit further. Her face showed the pain as suddenly her cherry gave way and 6 inches of my cock entered her cunt.
"Get it all in please, I want you to fuck my pussy raw!"
I started pushing deeper inside her now with no restraint. This girl was so hot and sex crazed and stoned, her moans became louder, Emma was pushing her sexy little hips up into my crotch as she kept puffing and moaning. She grabbed my butt and pulled me in deeper. I could feel my balls starting to slap against her ass, and she was close to coming.
Emma was finally happy to be fucked as she screamed out. "Yes, fuck me harder! Make my little pussy cum, I was really giving it to her now as I felt her squirm wildly below me and I felt her cumming all over my dick.
Her face was screwed up in passion as my whole dick was inside her tiny but hot pussy.
"Don't stop" she pleaded.
My dick was deep inside Emma her hot wet pussy gripped my cock, she was bucking her crutch up to meet my cock urging me to not stop fucking her.
"I wana put my legs over your shoulders so you can really get deep inside my pussy!"
I did this and Nat kissed Emma tasting some of Joe's cum I guess. I felt Emma tense up and the lips of her pussy grasp my dick even tighter. The next moment I felt her spasm and with this little girl still bucking and bouncing beneath me I felt her spew her girl cum all over my rock hard cock again.
This was not love making or even sex, this was wild raw fucking and what made it even more hotter was that it was with this sexy and willing daughter of my neighbour friend. A slight feeling of guilt came over me as I thought of how much Emma's parents had trusted us with their daughter, but that didn't last very long as I felt Emma cumming again and again.
"You make my pussy feel so good, but I don't want you to come in my pussy, perhaps later. I want you to come in my tight ass." She said in a little girl voice, still smiling at me. Emma got on her hands and knees and pushed her tight little cute ass up at me.
"Come on put it in my ass." She giggled.
Her copious juices were covering her asshole and my cock was wet with her cum while fucking her pussy.
I lined my dick up with her tight little asshole and pushed very slowly.
"Please stop teasing me, fuck my ass as hard as you fucked my pussy - put it all in!" She begged.
I shoved more of my 8 inch cock inside Emma's ass, and it was so tight I could hardly get it in, but she couldn't wait, she started pushing harder against my balls.
She rolled me over and straddled me and grabbed hold of my dick, smiling mischievously as she rubbed it up and down her still soaking wet clit.
"It's my first time, being fucked. But can I have both dicks up inside me, at the same time? One in my cunt and one in my ass"
Emma smiled at me as she grabbed my dick and rubbed it up and down her cunt lips.
She was so sweet, just lying on top of me. Nat told Joe to get behind Emma and she lined up Joe's cock with Emma's tiny asshole.
Emma lined my dick up against the entrance of her wet pussy and groaned softly.
She gasped as the head of Joe's dick popped inside her tight asshole, she pushed her down and my cock was again inside her hot pussy.
"Now push a bit harder Joe…oooooh that's nice…Now push your cock deeper in my pussy,
oh fuck I feel so full!"
This was feeling strange for both me and Joe, both our dicks went inside this girl's two holes.
Emma humped back and forth slowly, trying bit by bit to get all our cocks deep inside her.
Emma grunting and moaning as me and Kevin both started pushing into her holes.
Deeper and faster we went till Emma was screaming and shouting.
"Oh fuck, I'm being really fucked! I'm being fucked so hard and by two cocks!" She shouted to Nat and Abi.
The girls watched as this hot little girl was being fucked in her cunt and asshole.
We fucked her hard as Nat pushed her finger into Joe's asshole encouraging him to fuck her ass harder. Joe didn't last long and shot his load deep inside the little girls ass.
He pulled out of her. I turned us both over lay on top of Emma and pounded her hard. She wrapped her legs around me and I fucked her so hard "Oh shit of fuck I'm cumming again, Fuck me hard, I am going to cum all over your cock. The schoolgirl moaned, as I felt her pussy leak juice all over me.
She was still bucking her hips up at me whimpering beneath me, begging me to go deeper.
I felt her go limp as she closed her eyes and came over and over again.
I was ready and shot my load inside her. I collapsed on top of her.
"That was fucking incredible!" Emma shouted.
I literally fell off Emma and lay on the rug. Abi set to sucking my cock and licking my balls cleaning our juices off me. Nat was between Emma's legs,
Emma was shouting "No More" but Nat stuck her tongue into Emma's cunt and lapped my cum from her.
It was time to go to bed, Joe and Abi went home, Emma went to the spare room saying "Its Sunday tomorrow, I am not being picked up till 9pm………….

Web browsers run fine then suddenly run extremely slow.
by Bromontana68 - 4/2/13 10:05 PM
I'm running windows vista and have been for years now. Over the last couple months my computer (web browsers specifically) have been doing something a little odd. They will run perfectly for any given amount of time, sometimes half an hour, other times a day, then suddenly without any caution or error message or anything all my web browsers run incredibly slowly.
Each new browser will begin taking 15-20 seconds to load and then each additional page I go on takes longer than it should.
This holds true with all browsers (I run chrome for the most part). However, once one starts running slowly even if I check the others they are all showing the same symptoms.
The only solution I have is restarting my computer. This is only a temporary fix as sure enough I'll open a new page and it takes an eternity to get anything accomplished.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated to help solve this issue. Thank you in advance.

Meditation on the profound impact consumer-grade cameras had on the masses of people who could suddenly capture their lives on film. I took a great history class on popular culture in Canada a few years back, and this lecture always stuck with me. Our notions of time have never been the same!
The camera in this image was a gift from my mother-and there is even still film in it! Tried to capture the kind of light Jan Vermeer painted in his jewel-like images centuries ago in the upper floor of his studio in Delft.
Canon 50D
Canon 50mm "Nifty Fifty"
portraits, people, self portraits, cameras, kodak brownie, vermeer
now girl this is one of your best…love the framing and lighting and you are just so suited for this …and the camera is nice too.lol…well done dear….
I think you captured it! Lovely work
The treatment in this pic. looks great!
Absolutely gorgeous Janene! I love the lighting!
stunningly gorgeous
janene…if it were possible, you could do an SP with a cricket bat, and it would Still look gorgeous, never mind any sort of camera!!
Whats with the wistful look? Are you trying to work out where the USB port is…….?
Very nice portrait and text :)
oh, great! love the light. love the gentle touch of the camera!
Sooo very beautiful!!!

'Twas the Night Before a Sailor's Christmas
Saw this today and LOVED it!
Twas The Night Before Sailor's Christmas By Gerald Ewing Twas the night before Christmas, I swung on the hook With snowflakes alanding, asleep with my book When up on the deck I heard footsteps and stuff Ive been boarded! I thought, and I tried to be tough Then down the companionway hatch came a dude He was dressed like a nut and I thought, Im so screwed But he laughed and he hummed as he surveyed my junk So I figured he must be the resident drunk His eyes were lit up like a junkie on speed But he gave me a whole bunch of stuff that I need Like rum and cigars and new charts and a dinghy And some kind of fancy electrical thingy I knew it was stolen but I wasnt telling I just hoped he was giving and wasnt just selling And I poured him a grog which he downed with a wink Then I poured one for me (Lord I needed a drink!) Then he staggered above to the dark snowy night As I peeked I beheld an incredible sight Eight tiny dolphins and a beautiful sleigh And the dude hopped aboard and prepared to make way The dolphins were ready to power the sled But the guy raised a genny and mainsl instead With a burp and a chuckle he gathered the breeze And called to the dolphins, now swimming with ease Hey Stalker and FEMA and Cancer and Nixon! Or Stinky and Pepper Spray, Mason, and Dixon! Or whatever your names are, you cute little fishes, Heres to every last sailor, my best Christmas wishes! As he sailed away leaving a wobbly wake I hoped he had not many stops left to make He got close to shore and he soon was aground But the dolphins proceeded to pull him around And I heard him exclaim as he sailed out of sight Merry Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight! |

Sump Pump Basin
I have a sump pump that is sealed in my basement. I have not heard it come on since I moved into the house (2 years ago) and the pipe leading to the outside seems dry which indicates that it has been quite a while since water has been pumped out. We have had major rains and storms and snowfalls since I moved into the house but never had any flooding. I decided to try to trigger the pump by filling the basin and attached a hose to my bathroom sink and started to fill the basin. I could not trigger the pump and the basin would never fill up with water. I could get the basin level to fill up well over the pump but it seemed that the water level stayed steady at the same level even when leaving the water running continuously into the basin.
Does my basin have a leak maybe? Is this possibly normal somehow that I can't get the water level in the basin to exceed a certain height? This would contradict the need for a pump in my opinion. Any help would be great. Advertisement |

Sump Pump Basin
For every day that the basin has little or no water in it, consider yourself fortunate. This means that on that day the water table is low enough and/or the ground can absorb rain water fast enough so that the water does not come up and flood your basement.
Whoever put the sump pump in either had a basement flooding incident or expected that there would be basement flooding. It takes only one incident to ruin the carpeting, etc. A leak in the basin is a non-problem. If there was a leak and all the water in the basin escaped without coming up onto the basement floor elsewhere then everything would be fine and dandy. Except if the rain storm is heavy enough then some of the time water will be coming in the leak and have to be pumped out. You do not need to plug such a leak. If the water level is high enough that water comes in a basin leak, the name of the game is to collect that water and pump it out and away from the house.

Copenhagen–Tartu school
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Copenhagen–Tartu School)
The Copenhagen–Tartu school of biosemiotics is a loose network of scholars working within the discipline of biosemiotics at the University of Tartu and the University of Copenhagen. The school has been instrumental in developing biosemiotics as a new perspective on the study of life, in the biological and environmental sciences. Notable semioticians working in the Copenhagen–Tartu school are: Kalevi Kull, Jesper Hoffmeyer, Peeter Torop, Claus Emmeche, Timo Maran, Mihhail Lotman.[1][2][3]
Occasionally also the name 'Tartu–Bloomington–Copenhagen school' has been used, as having succeeded the earlier Tartu–Moscow school.[4]

| Vanisia by CreedWhile I fall into the camp that all fragrances are unisex, Vanisia is a lovely scent that I believe could be worn by a man who is comfortable with his masculinity, just as it could on a woman with elegance. When I first sniffed it, the spicy tinge that it opened with reminded me of the opening in Aramis - a cologne I fondly remember as a child as it was my father's signature. Spices, jasmine, and rose eventually settle to a creamy sandalwood with laced with vanilla beans. I also detect a tinge of amber. When I smell it I immediately think of state dinners, complete with cocktails, women in black dresses, and long gloves. This is a winner that makes me wish I had enough money to just collect gems like this my entire life. One day, maybe for my wife's wedding anniversary, I will pick up this lovely scent, only to sneak and spritz some on my neck on occasion. 26th February, 2009 |
| Jasmal by CreedStarting out very sweet, I immediately associate this scent with one of my old favorites - Hammam Bouquet. Intoxicating, exotic, and smelling like flowers blooming in the heat, Jasmal is like a refreshing cup of hot jasmine tea in the warm summer summer morning. At first comes the heat, and then it settles to a cooling sophistication. The drydown is very powdery on me, a lot like Hammam Bouquet. For those who favor the HB, I would suggest maybe purchasing a decant of this juice. 26th February, 2009 |
| Paris Hilton for Men by Paris HiltonI got a sample of this for Christmas. Much too fruity and just not for me. I agree that it does smell like a jolly rancher, but the musk brings out a kind of powdery scent which clashes, adding a certain "childishness" and "immaturity" to this fragrance. It is definitely for the under thirty crowd. I'm 24 as of this review, but it is not for this corn-fed Texan. 20th February, 2009 |
| Sandalo by Santa Maria NovellaI just tried this Sandalwood fragrance after shaving, and I must say, I'm surprised that it is listed here as a feminine fragrance. While much of SMN fragrances are unisex, this sandalwood is something that I would associate with a male. The opening is bright and peppery, almost harsh, drying down to a melange of plant matter and wood. Like their Spanish Leather, I wouldn't call it a "pretty" fragrance. But is is certainly one that calls for a suit and tie. 14th April, 2008 |
